Hindustani Bachon Ka Qaumi Geet
20th Century Allama Iqbal UrduWhere Chishti first Truth's holy call conveyed, And Nanak's song of Oneness was displayed, The land the Tatars for their homeland made, Which drew Hijaz's sons from desert shade, This is my homeland, this land of mine.
The land that left the wisest Greeks spellbound, Whose arts and knowledge spread the world around, Whose very dust by Truth with gold was crowned, Where for the Turks great diamond wealth was found, This is my homeland, this land of mine.
The stars that fell from Persia's shattered space, Were given light and a new shining place, The world first heard of Oneness from this place, A cooling breeze reached Arab's Chief with grace, This is my homeland, this land of mine.
Its people Moses, and its peaks are Sinai's height, Where Prophet Noah's ark first saw the light, Whose very ground is a stair to heaven's light, To live here is a paradise of pure delight, This is my homeland, this land of mine.
